Edwards Lifesciences Corporation Stock Forecast
Edwards Lifesciences Corporation stock upgraded from Sell Candidate to Hold/Accumulate after Monday trading session.
(Updated on May 06, 2024)
The Edwards Lifesciences Corporation stock price fell by -0.188% on the last day (Monday, 6th May 2024) from $85.25 to $85.09. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.40% from a day low at $84.81 to a day high of $86.00. The price has fallen in 6 of the last 10 days and is down by -2.15% for this period. Volume has increased on the last day by 122 thousand shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 2 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $164.97 million.
The stock is at the lower part of a wide and horizontal trend in the short term, and normally this may pose a good buying opportunity, though a breakdown through the bottom trend line at $84.35 will give a strong sell signal and a trend shift may be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Edwards Lifesciences Corporation stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $85.26 and $97.04 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and stocks seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. Stocks turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.

EW Signals & Forecast
A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, May 01, 2024, and so far it has risen 0.94%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Edwards Lifesciences Corporation stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $85.25 and $90.20. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely.
